[XeTeX] Bidi equation numbering

[Aryeh Weiss]

Exactly. However, so far, the installed  Hebrew fonts that I have are 
RTL fonts. This problem appears in other software (eg, in openoffice, 
Hebrew docs created in MS Word have the parentheses reversed).

If I use a non-Hebrew font in RTL mode, the parentheses are correct, but 
of course, the Hebrew a letters do not appear. Is Apple Hebrew freely 
available?


Anyway, using \setLTR before equations is an acceptable workaround, 
especially if hte next version of the bidi package fixes this problem.
